Fork In The Road

They stopped by our office building today and we were not disappointed! A friend and I split the smoked brisket and ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ burger. Man, they were good!
Look forward to when they come back again.

To be honest, I picked Fork in the Road because it had the shortest line compared to the other food trucks. Turns out, my decision wasn’t half bad! I shared an order of chili beer cheese fries, pork belly burger, and pumpkin whoopie pie. The fries were awesome with the oozing cheese and chunks of meat. I was expecting chili with chunks of ground meat, but it was actual pieces of steak, yum! Next, was the pork belly burger. The pork belly was delicious, but the bun made the sandwich dry. I wouldn’t mind ordering this again, but maybe I see if I can get it served «naked» style? Last and certainly the least was the whoopie pie. The pumpkin whip cream was certainly delicious, but the cookie part was stale. BOO!
The service was nice so I wouldn’t mind stopping by and giving them another chance.

AMAZING bacon and filet mignon burger! $ 12, no side. It’s not a small burger and tastes incredible! Even the bun was delicious. Other reviewers are complaining about the price, but they’re obviously oblivious to the price of bacon and filet. It’s not strips of bacon, it’s actually the burger’s filling! Soooooo good!

I looked at the menu on their website (the website that is posted on this Unilocal page). It states that they serve Mako Shark Tacos, and pictures posted on this Unilocal page also state that they serve this.
So I called the business to confirm this because I was curious. I told the man, «I saw that you serve mako shark, is it really shark?» The man who answered the phone was absolutely rude. He told me they don’t, and I asked if this was indeed the number for Fork In The Road. He said yes, but the menu I’m looking at was posted by an environmentalist group or something, and told «me and my friends» to stop harassing him. He proceeded to hang up on me before I got a chance to reply and say that I was just a curious potential customer.
I have never called their number before, and it’s ridiculous for him to assume that anyone calling to inquire about this item is from the same group that is apparently out to harass him.
I am no longer a potential customer. And I don’t think anyone should support a business of someone who is this rude.
Also, it’s not my fault that you don’t have a legitimate official menu available online, and the first search for your business leads you to this Unilocal page, which has a website on it. Any normal person would believe this info to be your official website and menu.

I’m giving a split review that ultimately results in a 4 star rating. I had the vegetarian «chipotle bbq pulled jackfruit with kimchee sauce» ($ 9) and the crisp truffle fungi fries ($ 6 I think). The jackfruit sandwich was amazing. Just the right spice and quite a similarity to a pulled pork sandwich. Not sure it needed both the word «chipotle» and the word «kimchee» for heat – I didn’t find any resemblance to kimchee. A photo of someone else’s sandwich showed a hoagie style bun, mine was roundlike a hamburger bun, very soft. A messy sandwich – and filing. Though other reviews also referenced blue cheese crème, I did not see nor taste this either. (but didn’t miss it nor remember seeing it on the menu. I imagine its $ 9 cost was due to the rarity of jackfruit (Jamaican or Asian) or soursop fruit as well as the skill of making it fabulous. Worth every penny.
I was disappointed in the white truffle fungi crispy fries. The fries were crispy except where the sauce touched and soggied them. The photo at the truck showed a brown gravy that looked scrumptious, mine had a «clear» broth with the white truffle flecks, there was very little of it ANDD mine was cold, tasteless and lifeless. Plain fries would’ve been better in this case and probably half the price.
While I scoff at the evaluators who whine about price when they go to a gourmet food truck with French culinary-​trained chefs with unique talents and tastes, I join to complain about price – when it’s not fabulously gourmet for my tastes and money as in the case of these fries on this night.
Because their menu was 5-​star spectacular and money is not an issue with me I would go back. I place this truck in my top two faves, along with Bembom. The fliet mignon-​bacon burgers looked yum-​o.

This is a much higher class of food than you normally find in a food truck. That being said, yes, the prices are high. I got the bacon/​filet burger and it was truly delicious. I believe it was $ 12, with no chips or fries. Would have been nice to have a choice of side, how much could a bag of chips or fries really cost them?
I did enjoy it though. I like to try new things when I go to food trucks, but if nothing else appealed to me, I’d eat here again

Let me start off by saying the fried mac n cheese pop was great. Now I get to the sandwich I received in the attached picture. I have never felt so ripped off and disgusted by a food truck in my life. If you think it looks nasty, it tastes much worse. It wasn’t that they were in a rush to prepare my food either because I was the only person there and now I know why. It looks like the frozen Steak Ums that you can buy at your local grocery store.

I was pretty impressed by the menu when I ate from Fork In The Road — dishes you usually only see at higher end restaurants, not on a food truck.
They had bison, which is one of my favorite non-​traditional meats. They had it in the usual burger form, but also a bison shortrib entrée — I was sold. I love shortribs, when done properly, and they didn’t disappoint. Two meaty cubes (they deboned them, which is helpful if eating on the go) that had that rich, meaty bison flavor untainted by thick sauces, just a hint of marinade. They were cooked perfectly, smooth with a bit of chew to remind you that you’re eating good meat. They were accompanied by deliciously roasted brussels sprouts in a balsamic reduction and sat atop a bed of sweet potato purée.
My roommate had the bison burger which was sadly unremarkable, but the bacon jam on top was deliciously smokey-​sweet and the brioche bun was fresh and buttery (no comment on the koolaid pickles, I am not a big pickle fan). He also had the truffle fries, which were nice crisp fries drizzled in a rich portobello mushroom gravy. I don’t typically like gravy fries, but these were a win in my book.
I also had to get an order of the escargot in puff pastry, because I don’t have the opportunity very often. The pastry was wonderfully buttery and flaky but not too delicate to lose the flavors within. The escargot were cooked well with just a hint of seasoning and accompanied by a bit of soft cheese (not sure what it was, somewhat a mix of a strong brie and a cream cheese, had a nice tangy flavor).
My only gripe was the price. I understand these are higher end ingredients, but I ended up paying $ 26 for the 2-​piece escargot dish and the 2-​piece short rib entrée. While that may fly at a regular restaurant, those prices are a little steep for a food truck. Still, I’d go back to try some of the other dishes like the grouper cheeks, mako shark tacos, duck tostada and rabbit confit.
The guy taking orders (owner? not sure) was super nice and chatted with us a bit as we waited. We weren’t eating on site and were taking our meals to go, so he was super careful about wrapping them well and giving us a bag to walk back with.

Is it just me, or does it seem that some food trucks are more expensive than a formal restaurant?
I went two days ago at lunch time and it seemed like everything was over 10 bucks, and I’m talking about appetizer portion foods that are gone in like three bites. That’s how it was when I got my duck tostada which was the only thing that I think was under 10 bucks @ 7 dollars. I looked at it and could hardly believe it, it was a just a plain blue corn tortilla with maybe… maybe… a tablespoons worth of toppings including the duck confitt which was practically nonexistent.
My coworkers looked at my pitiful tostada and burst out laughing so hard that they were hunched over with tears rolling down their cheeks because it was plain to see that I had totally gotten ripped off. Sure it tasted good but paying 7 bucks for three bites isn’t worth it in my book.

We were in Wekiva, staying with my girlfriend’s parents. pretty much across the street was her former elementary school that was having it’s fall festival. All I cared about were the food trucks.
There were a lot of trucks, and everything sounded good — 5 Gastronomy had so many wonderful things; so did La Empanada. But I have a soft spot for corn dogs, so Fork in the Road won me over.
First I was getting the corn dog, because corn dogs rule. But they also had rabbit confit rilletes — shredded rabbit deep fried like a croquette, with blueberry glaze and grilled onions over corn meal patties. At $ 15 I was a bit me, but the guy told me it was a half pound of rabbit, so time to eat some bunny.
The corn dog was solid. Could have been a meal in of itself. Came with some fancy mustard, and while I’m not a fan of mustard, it went well with the corndog.
The rabbit was excellent. Honestly tasted more like pulled turkey with a slight meaty flavor. It was very tender, and the combination of the corn meal and berry glaze was excellent. I did find a small bone, so be careful if you order it. Just chew properly.
All in all, excellent truck, great service, helpful iPad with descriptions of the different food.

i’ve always enjoy the food here, is always creative and a bit different which sets them apart from other trucks. The last couple of things i had was the rabbit confit rilletes and truffle mac pops. The confit rilletes were pretty good but the mac pop always seems to be just a tad under-​seasoned, but nothing that significantly detracts from the experience. The guys are always nice and happy to be there.

With the choice of 13 food trucks from at the FiART festival and food truck rally in Winter Haven, we purchased three items from Fork In the Road and they were all wonderful. Truffle Fungi Fries, Mac & Cheese Pop, and strawberry shortcake. The Mac N Cheese pop was probably the best. The fries were a nice change from the usual fries and the shortcake was tasty and refreshing. They always had customers lining up even at the end of the day. They were even nice enough to give me a free Capri Sun when they saw my little one. Hope to catch them again soon.

I have visited Fork In The Road several times since last year and I have enjoyed the revolving menu. There are some standard favorites on the Tribeca Bread, but I have fallen in love with the Jambalaya with sauce, the Fungi fries and the Pork rolls. They also fav fabulous desserts! Everything is fresh and in season, so again there is always something new and exciting to tickle my palette! I look for them on Twitter or Facebook to keep track of when they are in my hood.

Fork in the Road provides an amazing variety of food, and it’s always fresh and delicious. Love it!

This was my 2^nd time trying their food. The first time I had the lobster mac n cheese pop and it was very greasy, but I wanted to give them another chance so I tried the King Cajun sandwich this evening. I waited on the line for over 40 minutes. When the sandwich finally came out there were 5 really tiny very over cooked shrimp on a delicious roll with tasty fried okra. Not sure what happened to the seafood portion of the ettouffee because I only had some of its gravy over the shrimp and okra. I was extremely disappointed. If they were running out of ingredients I would have rather been told that I needed to order something else.

The jackfruit sandwich is a fantastic meat alternative. You wont miss the pork at all! I was always very satisfied with this truck’s quality and portions. Also, the Google deal was super easy to use.
The employee I always talk to (dunno if he’s the owner) is incredibly nice and accommodating. My friend wanted to basically assemble her own dessert and pick her price, and the man actually worked with her, all with a smile on his face.
One of my favorites. :-)

I’ve caught this food truck at the ²⁴⁄₇ winter park food truck stop. I’ve had their pork belly banh mi sandwich and mac and cheese pop.
I was pretty disappointed, maybe cause I’m vietnamese, but the pork belly banh mi wasn’t as great tasting as it sounds. The mac and cheese pop was raved by a lot of people I heard and even had a spot on the news about them. Mine ended up being cold dead center, and bland.
Its possible I just came on a bad day, so hopefully I’ll catch again some time.

Had the BBQ short rib sandwich. Awesome sandwich, great value. This is a must eat at truck.

I’ve tried food from this truck maybe 3 – 4 times now and always have been impressed. There is some delicious food coming out of it, and much of it is very original and likely unavailable elsewhere (that I know of). Much of what I’ve had from it has been dessert-​based. I had an amazing gourmet peanut butter cup from the truck maybe a month ago. It was among the best I ever have had. It contained a lot of fancy chocolates and ingredients, many of which I, at the time, was unfamiliar with. (If I can find the picture of the cup’s contents, I’ll post it later.) Some other excellent items that the truck offers include macaroni and cheese pops (kind of like ice pops, but with macaroni and several different cheeses and also with, I believe, bread crumbs) and fried pickles.
Tonight, I tried the jackfruit sandwich ($ 9) here. News about its availability was posted on FITR’s Facebook page earlier today, and it sounded so good that I had to make my way over to the Winter Park Food Truck Stop to check it out. It is described as being «chipotle BBQ-​pulled jackfruit on a baguette and topped with daikon, apple & napa kimchi with smoked blue cheese cream.» I still don’t know what jackfruit is (time to Google it … for me, anyway!) but the sandwich was very good, albeit a little bit different than what I was expecting. That’s not to say it was better or worse than I thought it would be … it just was different. I’m sure that many of you would enjoy it if you enjoy BBQ sandwiches, though. It definitely had a BBQ feel to it, although the BBQ meat (I’m guessing pork) was replaced by jackfruit. Yes, this was a vegetarian BBQ sandwich! Sounds funny/​weird, but it was different and enjoyable.
The employees are really cool and the food, to this point, has been worth the time and money for me. Check out the truck on Facebook/​Twitter to find out more and when/​where it will be open. It seems to be gaining popularity and likely will be among the city’s best trucks in time … that is, if it already isn’t!

I got the buffalo chicken sandwich and a soda for nine dollars. (They have Pepsi products). The bread was amazing. I was a little disappointed with the chicken. I was expecting frozen chicken but I anticipated a chicken breast but it was more of a chicken patty. Based on this sandwich alone I give this place 3 stars. I think it has potential to be more though. The strawberry shortcake looks amazing. A friend got it but I didn’t sample it so I can’t vouch for it. But i would definitely try this place again.
